Unearthing Our Roots: Restorative Practices for Cultivating Spaces of Belonging - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Unearthing Our Roots is a call to action. Join author and community organizer Krista R. Pérez as she rallies advocates, activists, and leaders from historically marginalized groups to implement transformative and healing practices within their communities. Pérez calls readers in, asking us to unearth and uproot anti-Black, racist, ableist and biased values that fracture relationships in and surrounding our communities. With decades of lived experience and a multidisciplinary approach, Pérez presents guided journal prompts for examining intentions, strategies for unraveling harmful biases and behaviors, and transformative and restorative practices for communities of historically marginalized groups at both micro and macro levels. "Krista Pérez has written a marvel of a book-part memoir, part community organizing guidebook-that will touch and transform many lives... Within these pages, I hear the scholarship and wisdom of bell hooks, Linda Tuhiwai Smith, and others, but written with the clarity of Pérez's voice and in a language that will speak to younger generations..." ¿- Renee Simms, author of Meet Behind Mars and professor of African American Studies / Creative Writing
